VMware Fusion for Mac is exciting stuff! I am "chomping at the bit" to see it running a full-blown FreeBSD workstation environment.
Is VMware Tools available (or necessary?) for FreeBSD under Fusion for Mac? If not, how can I at least increase the console size (`stty rows 40 cols 80' has no effect)? If VMware Tools is available, how can it be installed in console (text) mode?
"To return to your computer" key sequence spits `^[[J' to the VM input. Any way to suppress this? Ideally, the mouse cursor would move seamlessly between the VM window and Mac OS X, allowing transparent movement between them ...
I don't have a wacom tablet or keyspan RF, but I was unable to "direct input to this vm" a couple of times. Restarting the VM resolved the problem each time. After enabling VT (and assigning both CPUs to the VM?), I haven't encountered this again. Any reason VMware can't enable VT as part of the install process? Why did Apple disable VT in the first place?
I am running FreeBSD 6.2-RC1 as 64-bit guest OS with both CPUs enabled, 384MB RAM allocated and VT enabled (via vmx-var-set.efi) on an iMac 24" in the original Apple configuration (e.g., no memory upgrades), except for Logitech MX Laser mouse.
